When Chris Sale scales the mound Sunday night at Yankee Stadium, consider his sheer dominance over the game every fifth day or so for the past four months. Not only does he lead the league in ERA (2.57), he has piled up at least 10 strikeouts in 15 of 23 starts, including eight in a row earlier in the season. The Boston Red Sox lefty has fanned 12.77 hitters per nine innings, the third-highest rate of all time behind Randy Johnson in 2001 (13.41) and Pedro Martinez in 1999 (13.20). At this pace, he will become the first American League pitcher to punch out 300 batters in a season since Martinez did so 18 years ago.

Sale’s +7.4 WAR is the best in baseball, and it’s not close. By runs allowed, he’s at +6.7 WAR, so he’s less far ahead of Altuve, Judge, and Trout, but still has some distance between them. And despite the persisting belief that ERA or runs allowed measure “what the pitcher actually did”, as usual, crediting the pitcher for everything that happens while he’s on the mound obscures the truth.

Which brings us to today's quiz of the day. At just age 28, Sale is now amongst the top 25 active pitchers in Ks, one of just two hurlers under the age of 30 to crack the list. With that in mind, we want to see how many of those pitchers you can name in five minutes.
